  1. Daily Table Tennis Chit Chat

    It's your reward for not playing the league. More seriously, I should have told you I was coming ao please forgive the oversight on my part. Was only there on Sunday.

  3. Daily Table Tennis Chit Chat

    I am actually leaving the DC area today after having been here since Sunday. I went to meet up with friends drom TTEdge at WDTTC. Couldn't play as much as I would have liked with my arthritis but still played a decent amount. Played a young Chinese footwork and forehand guy who had one of the...
  4. New era with DHS D40+ 3 Star Balls

    Yes. And more and better rallies. No silly mistakes in serve return or third ball or rallies because of deformed balls. I think Timo's struggles with the NP40+ at competitions were really about declining form and good opponents. All those people who beat him have improved vs the field as...
  5. Bty Petr Korbel (Hungary) vs Tibhar Stratus Power Wood

    When you first use it, it feels really sharp. But it becomes duller in a week or two but still remains spinny. Some people don't like the loss of the feeling of grip but I have gotten used to it since I know play exactly the same with 3 month Karis as with brand new Karis, the 3 month Karis...
  6. Sharing A Good Video of ZJK's Pendulum Serve

    That's why it is one of the hardest serves to do. Many people can't put backspin on the serves, and when they do, it is not absolutely heavy (only deceptively heavy), so many pros don't like that and prefer their higher quality spinny variants. For me, I can't serve it as reliably short and...
  7. CNT Closed Training for WTTC 2017

    Chen Yinghua, who left China a long time ago, spoke about thia form of training and he was the Waldner clone in the 80s. EDIT: Added link to article. http://lucioping.altervista.org/English/the_secrets_of_chinese_table_ten.htm
  8. Korea Open 2017

    China has swept the medals in the last 2 WTTC. So again, i understand your passion, but really most of the JNT have suffered losses to the Chinese in crucial rounds. Same with Germany. Nothing to be ashamed of. Their inconsistencies are no different from people like Freitas, Samsonov, Dima...
  9. Korea Open 2017

    I think you only say that because you have a vested interest in supporting them. Their performance and regular level is no different from say, South Korea. The real problem is probably injuries.
  10. Korea Open 2017

    I thot so but I have not seen a formal list and my brain forgets.., ah, Muromatsu overtook him in rankings. That is why Maharu is not on the CNT board.
  11. Korea Open 2017

    You would never know he was only 24/25 from your depressing description of his prospects. A lot of stuff is about staying healthy and not being injured.
  12. Korea Open 2017

    Just saw the Boll-Yoshimura match. Very high standard. Well done to both players. Hope Yoshimura made the JNT for WTTC.
  13. Korea Open 2017

    He was a certain type of prodigy in the German league. Probably the injuries, but he has been a disappointment relative to his promise for those who saw him in the German league when he was younger.

    Fransizka tells Liu, "Go fix your enemies board. You put me in the wrong tier!"

    Ishikawa is using Hurricane blue sponge.
  16. Bty Petr Korbel (Hungary) vs Tibhar Stratus Power Wood

    Having looked at the video you posted, good luck with this. You really do not understand that a lot of people posting tjese things about blades being too slow for the plastic ball don't know what they are talking about and the better ones are speaking from an advanced perspective. I posted...

    I am guessing Yulia Prokhorova.
  18. Bty Petr Korbel (Hungary) vs Tibhar Stratus Power Wood

    Modern rubbers are much heavier though. Just saying.
  19. Bty Petr Korbel (Hungary) vs Tibhar Stratus Power Wood

    Today, I was trying to figure out what about the Vega Pro makes it so suited for my style and why I like it (I consider it a composite Korbel, and it is quite likely that if the Vega Pro didn't exist, I would be using a Korbel or KJH). The short answer is that what I thought was a thin flare...
